Can't regulate a delta shower.

If you have the type that you turn the handle like a clock, you have to find that perfect spot. It can be 3/4 of the way around. If you have the ball type, single lever, the rubber seats and springs under the ball should be replaced. Cost...less than $10 for the kit to do yourself.

I have purchased a single handled shower kit but, lost directions and every time put the springs and washers inbefore the cartridge assembly and get it all put back together it either gets to hot or cold...

HELLO- Springs can only go in one way, the cartrige ( ball with lever arm) has to go in a certain way if not it will catch on the washers, also it will not control the water correctely. Good luck sorry could not be more helpful.

HOW DO I INSTALL A SEAL KIT

A metal ball controls the temperature and flow of water from the spout in the vast majority of Delta single-lever faucets. That ball rests on three rubber seals, each seal suspending the ball with a single spring. Over time, wear on the seals, the springs and even the ball itself typically results in leaks. Thankfully, repairing the faucet is relatively simple, and Delta even makes repair kits with the replacement parts needed for each model.


Turn off the valve that controls the main water supply. The valve is located next to the water meter, inside or outside the house, and must be twisted in a clockwise direction.

Remove the plastic cap from the center of the faucet's handle by prying the cap free with the blade of a dull knife or a flat-head screwdriver, then remove the screw in the center of the faucet handle with a Phillips-head screwdriver. Pull the handle off the faucet assembly to remove it

  • Remove the single bonnet nut that surrounds the faucet valve with an adjustable wrench. Grip the bonnet nut at the base, which is ribbed to give the wrench a surface to grasp, and turn in a counterclockwise direction to remove it.

  • Remove the circular, white plastic cam that surrounds the top of the faucet, pulling it off and revealing a rubber seal, which you also remove. Next, pull the metal ball out of the faucet assembly and pry out the ball's supporting rubber seals and their springs with a screwdriver (the springs slide onto the bottom of each seal, so they will come out along with the seals).

  • Slide one replacement spring onto each of the three replacement seals that come with the Delta repair kit for your faucet model, then insert each seal into the assembly. Insert the replacement ball from the repair kit, then cap it by putting the replacement rubber seal over the ball, followed by the plastic cam

  • Place the bonnet nut over the faucet valve, then tighten the nut with an adjustable wrench. Position the handle onto the end of the faucet, then insert a screw into the center of the handle, tighten it with a Phillips-head screwdriver and, finally, press the decorative plastic cap over the screw.

  • Turn on the valve that controls the main water supply by twisting the valve in a counterclockwise direction to complete the repair

    Leaky shower head

    If you replaced the seats and springs and the problem continued you may need to get a whole rebuild kit including the ball and replace that one as well

    I have an older single handle Delta shower valve, and I am only able to get good water pressure on cold water (which is opposite of the normal right hand). Can you suggest a solution?

    A rebuild kit for a shower is pretty cheap for delta. the actual ball behind the handle maybe wore and not allowing it to seat properly and restricing water flow hot side.

    Also if you take it appart the 2 washers and springs you might as well replace them also.

    Replace washers and springs and the ball with shaft that handle fits to.

    Shut off water before taking appart.

    Need to fix a leaking delta shower faucet and need to know how to take it apart. Single handle. only turns to left for on and farther left the hotter it gets,

    find the set screw on the handle loosen and remove handle, remove locking ring (a tool to do this comes with the replacement kit that you can buy from hardware store) remove the ball. You now have access to the washers and springs remove old washers and springs install new. reassemble in reverse. make sure not to overtighten locking ring.

    Leaking shower faucet

    I do believe that Delta guarantees their faucets for life. Go online to get the 800 number and call them, have the model number ready. They actually sent my girlfriend a replacement for her $300 kitchen faucet and also the guts to 2 bathroom faucets. They come with diagrams also. Of course I had to install them, but they stand behind their stuff.
